Ingredients

  • – 2 cups (480 ml) all-purpose flour
  • – 1 ½ cups (360 ml) granulated sugar
  • – 2 teaspoons (10 ml) baking soda
  • – 1 tablespoon (15 ml) cinnamon
  • – 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt
  • – 3 large eggs
  • – 2 cups (480 ml) grated zucchini, about 2 small
  • – ¾ cup (180 ml) vegetable oil
  • – 1 tablespoon (15 ml) vanilla extract
  • – 1 ½ cups (180 g) chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Heat your oven to 350˚F and prepare two 8×4-inch loaf tins by greasing them or lining with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, blend together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt using a whisk. Set this mixture aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs. Stir in the grated zucchini, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well mixed.
  4. Incorporate the dry ingredients and chopped walnuts into the zucchini mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Evenly distribute the batter between the prepared loaf tins and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the bread to cool in the tins for 5 minutes, then remove the loaves and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Make sure to thoroughly remove excess moisture from the grated zucchini before adding it to the batter to avoid a soggy consistency.
  • Enhance the flavor and crunch by toasting the chopped walnuts before mixing them into the batter.
  • For a sweeter loaf, sprinkle brown sugar on top of the batter before baking to achieve a crispy caramelized crust.
